Well, I use \e=vim and it works fine. But, sometimes you forget and
the results can be destructive to the database. I messed around for a
little bit with the tab completion callback routine yesterday and I
now believe that's not the issue. It only fires when you tab AFAICT
-- so the problem is in the readline function itself which reduces the
set of solutions somewhat -- either you run it or you don't.
One thing that could solve a lot of issues would be to disable
readline when inside a dollar quote etc.
